Fraxel alternatives to close pores on nose and cheeks?

I am 31 years old and I used CRX peeling program from OBAGI followed by Nu-Derm system to protect my skin from aging, and close the pores on my nose and cheeks that cause blackheads. However, my doctor advised me to have 3 Fraxel sessions to eliminate this problem. I'm a bit afraid. Please advise if there are any alternatives.

A: Fraxel may or may not help pore size

I don’t know that you can eliminate the problem. Fraxel may or may not help diminish the size of your pores. It does help some people but it is not a guarantee.
